What a day
The last twenty-four hours have been wild. I went to the ED not even less than that and I was admitted for my migraines. Meds were not helping. No matter what they gave me, I still had a headache. Then one med they gave me let me sleep for about three hours before I was up again in another migraine attack. I have been up since 5am. They gave me another dose of this med and discharged me with it but unfortunately, it severely interacts with my Latuda so I can’t take it. ☹ The pharmacist refused to fill it without a doctor okaying it and because I am no longer in the hospital, they haven’t returned her faxes or calls so I don’t think I will be getting it. It’s fine with me because my it made my stomach hurt. I have been dealing with a touch of gastritis all day. I haven’t taken my stomach med. They didn’t give it to me with my morning meds. I had to tell them I take two other blood pressure meds even though the PA went over the list when I got to the floor. Idiot. They made sure I got the steroid dose though.
The migraine has gone away but I am left with rebound headache. It’s gotten a little better now that I have some food in me. I had to order McD’s because it is the only food I know that helps when my stomach hurts this way. I might have ice cream later. I was kind of dizzy as I left the hospital and I was worried about taking the train home. I didn’t want to take a cab because I had to pick up my med, or so I thought. I did end up getting some more half and half as I had to postpone my delivery for today for tomorrow and I am almost out. I don’t know what time the delivery will happen because they had to redo the order and it’s not in the app anymore. Ugh. I like checking the updates. I hope I get notified when they arrive.
My room was a million degrees. My stupid sister had shut the fan off but left my light on. I don’t understand the logic. It took a while wondering why my room wasn’t cooling down until I looked at the ceiling and the fan wasn’t moving. It’s cooler now but still has a little ways to go to be cold. I have been dealing with my chest wall pain for more than 24 hours now. The IV med made the pain worse but I didn’t tell anyone for fear of getting a cardiac work up for nothing. I just wanted to go home and take MY meds. I couldn’t believe the first round of meds was stuff I could take at home, mag, ibuprofen, Tylenol, and fluids. I don’t know why my head is hurting so bad after a fucking week. The doctor in rounds from neuro asked me what my triggers were and I basically said dreams. It is the only thing that sets them off. Other than bright light. Because holy hell, on really bright days, opening my door to light outside can trigger them. I didn’t bring my sunglasses with me and I should have. It was bright today, which didn’t help my fucking head. I have transition lenses but sometimes it takes a while to block out the light and I don’t really see a difference when it is activated. I would rather have the sunglasses.
I am just going to try and listen to the sox tonight. It is starting an hour later. I don’t know if I will be up as I am so beat. I haven’t been able to nap. I was almost ready to pass out while in the hospital and my fricken bladder said time to go. I was so fucking mad. I was all nice and comfy too, which being on a stretcher was difficult to do. I missed my bed and my pillow. Hospital pillows suck so bad.
